Chapter 12: Covetousness
In a few seconds, the fat man struggled to poke his head out of the sea again, his hands fluttering wildly, and what little drunkenness he had left turned into fear.
"Save ...... Gollum ~ Save me! ”
"Gollum~"
After a few mouthfuls of salty seawater, the fat man was not good, and the fear brought by the sea was far beyond everything.
The soldiers on the ship, you look at me, I look at you, no one jumped down desperately, and some even looked at those adventurers.
Isn't the purpose of hiring adventurers precisely to protect the Chamber of Commerce?
"Hey! You guys go save people! One of the soldiers shouted at the adventurer.
The beard pouted, although the sea monster disappeared under a blow, but what is the situation underwater, no one can say, adventurers are adventurers, but they can't help but take their lives seriously.
"Hey!"
"Save ......"
The fat head of the buoy disappeared into the sea in an instant, as if something was dragging him in the sea.
"Sea monster! The sea monster isn't gone yet! ”
"It's important to save people! You damned adventurers, don't you want to get a copper coin commission from your master! I swear! I'm going to go to the Adventurer's Guild to tell you about it! ”
"You have the ability, you jump down to save people!"
......
Since the merchant disappeared, there was a mess of porridge outside, and Kurumi shook his head, suddenly finding that Xiaohong was staring at him.
Dai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and Crazy San said seriously: "If I say that I didn't recruit the sea monster, do you believe it?" ”
"Faith!" Xiaohong nodded resolutely, but thought in her heart, 'Poor fat man, if you hadn't moved your mind, the master would have released coercion and let that big octopus get out...... Anyway, can you eat an octopus that big? The squid whiskers are quite delicious, write them down, and let a few little guys in their forties and fifties look for them. ’
Kurumi still stayed in the cabin and didn't come out, there was a mess outside, and after the sea monster attack, almost everyone had no intention of sleeping.
Not long after, one of the former merchants' housekeepers knocked on the door of the third cabin.
"Miss Tokizaki? Did you sleep? ”
...... The door opened, and the soldier glanced at him a few more times, pressed his thoughts, and comforted him a few more words, explaining what had just happened, and hurried away.
Xiaohonghou floated around in the cabin, "Yes, another one who has a thief's heart but no guts." ”
The second half of the night.
After the soldiers took care of everything, they also lost their backbone, the merchant was powerful, and there was only one henchman, when the sea monster attacked, that person happened to be standing in the middle of the splint, and was whipped into meat sauce by the sea monster!
Now there are a lot of red and black sauce embedded in the cracks of the wooden board on the splint, which looks particularly disgusting and unappetizing.
The merchant had no children and no daughters, and he had a small inheritance in the kingdom and kingdom, where there were maids to take care of everything, and when he was traveling, he took most of his family soldiers to guard the caravan.
But this time......
If the merchant and his henchmen are dead, are not the merchant's goods and the inheritance of other nations......
Someone has a crooked mind.
Including the two adventurers, but the two adventurers were afraid that the adventurer's guild would not be able to explain, so they didn't start, but waited and watched.
Near dawn, a strong man who seemed to have practiced two-handed gestures found the cabin of the two adventurers, and the three of them talked for a long time, and no one knew what the three of them talked about except them.
The atmosphere on the ship was even more eerie, and no one even made breakfast.
It was found that the captain and first mate of the charterer's guild were dead, and there were two or three other sailors, big cats and kittens, but fortunately, someone among the family soldiers could sail the ship, so as not to cause the course to deviate.
Kurumi walked out of the cabin, not caring about the eerie environment on the ship, and ate his breakfast by himself, enjoying the sea view at the edge of the guardrail.
The sea breeze is not too big, and seeing too much sea view is actually just that, and even a sense of disgust will occur.
The endless blue sea, except for the ripples, has hardly changed in the eyes of ordinary people.
Sailors also love this calm weather the most.
No one came up to talk.
But the gaze at Kurumi became more and more unscrupulous.
Except for the merchant and his henchmen, only one other adventurer knew the girl's "identity", and the others only thought that the girl was an ordinary daughter.
As for why the nobleman's daughter didn't bring guards with her, the devil knows, these are not what they have to consider.
Looking at the delicate figure wrapped in a black dress, every man is ready to move.
This is the sea, and who knows what is going on on the ship except the people around you.
Kurumi and Little Red Queen explore the minerals in the ocean, and judge them in their minds like picking commodities.
Empress Xiaohong has already given an order to the subsystem that controls the Mother Tree of Life, asking to create some special elves that can survive and fight in the ocean.
After they are manufactured, they should not be called forest elves, how about calling them sea elves? However, Kurumi felt that the word sea elf was a little familiar, which once reminded Kurumi of the Haier brothers in Mo Xiao's true spirit's memory.
What are the Haier brothers? There is no answer in Mo Xiao's True Spirit Fragment, but when he thinks of the sea, the Haier brothers appear. Are they gods who can control the sea?
Crazy three hundred puzzled.
'Here, here, and there. There are so many minerals in the sea, but unfortunately it is also difficult to collect. ’
'It's okay master, this kind of fantasy world is mostly set in the Middle Ages, and rough work like mining work will not be done by those noble magicians and adventurers. So places like kingdoms, empires, and the Slian Sect are absolutely rich in minerals, and their transcendents disdain mining, but we are different! ’
Kurumi thought about it and was speechless, did Xiaohong want to create a world full of elves?
Kurumi stayed until lunchtime.
The situation at lunch was even more weird, eating the leftovers of yesterday, many people disappeared, most of them were in groups of threes and twos, hugging together, but looking at the eyes of the crazy three, it was even stranger.
It's night again.
I don't know if it's because of the inexplicable death of the captain, but the ship that was supposed to go to the port of the Slian Sect is still drifting on the sea, and this speed must not be slow.
For dinner, Kurumi didn't go out, and she found some books on the ship, which were logbooks left by the dead captain and talked to the sea monsters.
People in this world have never explored the ocean, and some people say that there are powerful sea monsters in the depths of the ocean, and passing ships will be swallowed by them!
There are banshees, and there are merfolk who live at the bottom of the sea.
In short, these stories are much more interesting than the "One Thousand and One Nights" in the fragments of Mo Xiao's True Spirit.
If it weren't for Xia Yin's big one, he would have completely destroyed the elf king, and there were no books, and the crazy three wouldn't have the heart to come out to play.
Just like before, she had read all the books Beatrice had before she started to play.
"Bang! ——”
Instead of knocking, the wooden hatch was violently slammed open.
Kurumi looked up and glanced at the strong man who was full of alcohol.
